Many important reforms In road

consideration of. the legislature formed
the basis of a paper read at a meet
Ing of the Good Roads Association of
Asheville and Buncombe county In the
council chamber of City hall at noon
today.'
Excited -arguments took place on
the subject of the changes, particular
ly a provision regarding the setting
aside of 60 per cent of the 20 per cent
special road tax for the malntainance
of Improved roads already built, thia
becoming a casus belli between Mayor
Rankin and Representative Williams.
The meeting ended with the paper
being again referred to the committee
for further action, and all definite
work on It postponed for the time
being.
The paper was drawn up by a spec
ial committee of the. association con
slsting of the following: J. W. Haynes,
Dr. M. H. Fletcher, F. Stikeleathcr,
W. F. Randolph, Mark W. Brown and
Dr. C. P.-Ambler.
The salient provisions of the paper
besides. the maintenance clause are as
follows:
The dividing of roads in districts,
each district to be in charge of a paid
supervisor serving for one year and
responsible to the county engineer.
A system of stub books In the hands
of the supervisors for keeping tab of
the free labor on the roads and seeing
that there are no delinquents.
The appointment of the county road

Deputy Collector W. A. Joly has
just returned from Cherokee county,
where he has been on a series of raids
for the past week. During this time
he hus captured five Illicit distilleries,
some of which were big ones. Only
two coppers were . destroyed, as tho
news of his presence moved rather
rapidly after the first two seizures and
tho owners lost no -time In getting
them away from Ithe sites of operation.
One of the plants which was seized
was said to have been the most exten-

copper was only of 00-gallon capacity
but the owner evidently thought that
he would operate there for some time,

around the plant and was feeding 18
hogs with the slops from the still.
When Mr. Joly destroyed the plant he
